To succeed in this role, you will have:

• 3+ years' experience in software testing across complex technology environments
• Strong knowledge of testing methodologies, test design techniques and defect management practices
• Experience executing functional, regression, integration and end-to-end testing
• Hands-on experience with test management tools such as JIRA and Zephyr
